"The struggle for justice
doesn't end with me. This struggle is for all the Troy Davises who
came before me and all the ones who will come after me. I'm in good
spirits and I'm prayerful and at peace. But I will not stop
fighting until I've taken my last breath."

According
to media witnesses, Davis maintained his innocence until the end,
telling the family of the off-duty officer he was convicted of
killing that he was innocent. His last words were: "For those about
to take my life, may God have mercy on your souls; may God bless your
souls."

In
the dystopic world that we have created, where right is wrong and
wrong is right, we must pray not only for Davis's soul, but for the
day when injustices such as this never, ever happen again. Troy
Davis is at peace now, having fought his battle for justice. It's up
to us to to make sure this never, ever happens again.
